Comment on Picnic at the Big Lady, Quabbin Reservoir by Robin Hudechek

Beautiful poem! I love the vivid imagery, especially “Whole towns caught like a breath,” and “perhaps a table set for tea spun slowly to the ceiling…” The immediacy of the moment is almost magical, especially since we are looking back in time.

I recall these kinds of whiteout conditions when I lived in North Dakota, especially, but in Alaska and Michigan as well. The snow is like a scrim of frozen water flung out into the air by a trickster force. Excellent photo.

For me, these types of creeks in northern landscapes do not necessarily instill brooding, but introspection and a type of serenity not always available in other climes. I love this photo on a hot July day and think of Clearwater Lake in Delta Junction, Alaska, and other places in Michigan over the years I still lived in my native state. Thanks.

Love the rasp and birth and darkness winding among one another. Crisp. Last two lines are a hugely satisfying conclusion.
